Three books on and off.

Talon of the Silver Hawk
A good, typical fantasy. I wouldn't say it's anything special; it follows a formula. But it's very very well written.

The Last Wish
While this is more like a collection of short stories, it's very good. It's something you can dip in and out of really, which is what I'm doing.

American Gods
So far it's very good; Neil Gaiman is great! I'm only 1 chapter into it, but the decription is so vivid and I really like the main character. It's nicely written too.

Currently re-reading the Allys world book series, currently I've reached book 12. They're nice little books (about 200-300 pages each) and just provide easy reading, since I can't be bothered with reading something like Harry Potter or LOTR right now...

About 50 pages from completing Pandora's Star by Peter Hamilton. I'll start Judas Unchained, the second book in the same saga when I finish.

The Shining. I need to sit down and really read that, I've always just skim read it.


Also I'm giving the latest Alex Rider book a whirr, see how it compares to the others.

Well, book completed. It gets boring in parts, I think. I'm still going to read Judas Unchained, though.

I'm currently reading Dark Rivers Of The Heart by Dean Koontz.

It's been a few months since I last read anything and this is an enjoyable read, Koontz is magnificent.

I'm currently going threw the Rift war saga and any books related to Drizzit. It seems like Eragon is a carbon copy of the Rift war saga, all be it Eragon was done by a far better writter.

I finished One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest a couple weeks ago, and it was pretty good. I also finished Much Ado About Nothing by Shakespeare, and am currently rereading it for a worksheet, an essay, and a music project. It's probably my favorite Shakespearean play next to Hamlet.
